Coolest poop bags ever




How could I have forgotten?! In addition to brilliant chalkboard shenanigans [those fonts!], Nate Williams created the design for these 100% biodegradable poop bags for Olive. Two sizes: Unisex and Super Poop. Did I mention these bags are 100% biodegradable?

From the Olive site [where there are lots and lots of desirable items for pets]:
It seems strange that conscientious dog owners pick up their dog's poo (which is 100% biodegradable)...only to pop it into a plastic bag that will be with us for 100's of years.
[...]
Olive poop bags are made naturally from GMO-free corn starch and vegetable oil, are certified 100% biodegradable and compost in as little as 40 days. Poop and parcel can be buried for micro-organisms to consume or combined with yard waste for curbside collection in communities that compost biodegradable waste.
Biodegradable bags, a terrific collector's-item canister — what's not to love? OK, corn starch. Which comes from [cough*dead zone*cough] corn. My advice: assuage your guilt with a made-in-California, organic, recycled, totally adorable poop-bag carrier. I am so giving up Starbucks for a couple weeks to buy these goodies.
